The Indian team has been announced for the final test of this thrilling series. While we all know who the 12th man will be, lets see what the team management decides to do with the opening slot. With Jaffer out of the reckoning, I would like to see the following line up
1) Virender Sehwag
2) M.S.Dhoni
3) Rahul Dravid
4) Sachin Tendulkar
5) V.V.S.Laxman
6) Saurav Ganguly
7) Irfan Pathan
8) Harbhajan Singh
9) Anil Kumble
10)R.P. Singh
11) Ishant Sharma
12) Dinesh Karthik
I would like to save Irfan for the lower order as I feel he performs better with a slightly older ball. At this point, we shold not compare his ODI performances as the runs he scored at the top of the order then were of the White ball and not with this red Kookaburra balls. And the fact that I wish to see Dhoni open is simply because I think that fellow can apply himself amazingly well provided he curbs his attacking instincts. He showed us a glimpse of his defensive nature in the 2nd Innings at Perth and Sydney. More over, Dhoni needs more time in the middle to be able to get going with his scores.
